[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know of three different school systems that have types of giften programs for kindgergarteners.  They also had more help available to their middle level children.  Not that a GT program is needed, but it is nice for parents to know that their children are challenged.  Personally I wish all the labels and grades could be done away with while still encouraging children to do well, but I would still like my child challenged and not have the curriculum dumbed down or just not available because there wasn't a proper assessment.  All I was asking is that the schools use a different reading assessment test in the spring for children who ace the test in the fall.  It doesn't make sense for them to retake it and it tells the next year's teacher nothing new.[/quote]

If you feel your Kindergarten student is not challenged, then I suggest you follow the advice of the PP who recommended a meeting with the teacher and the AART at your school. Go all the way up to the principal and perhaps the cluster superintendent if you feel it is necessary. You do have options.[/quote]
